Sheffield woman joins nude protest in London

A Sheffield woman lay nearly nude on a busy London street alongside dozens of other people in protest at the treatment of animals.

Izzy Alexander, aged 23, and from Dore, joined other Peta supporters in Trafalgar Square to protest at the way animals are treated in the meat and fishing industries.

The former King Ecgbert School pupil, now a part-time bartender and qualified security officer, said: “I am happy to use my body to challenge people to think about the massive toll that the meat industry takes on animals, the Earth and human health – and to go vegan.”
